Abstract:
The present status of some selected topics on tau physics is presented: charged-current universality tests, bounds on lepton-flavour violation, the determination of the strong coupling from the inclusive tau hadronic width, the measurement of V_us through the Cabibbo-suppressed decays of the tau, the strong dynamics of exclusive hadronic decays and the determination of the muon anomalous magnetic moment from tau decay data.
